Patricia''s POV (Bothered Wife)


    "Ano? Ex fiance ni Callum yung model? Si Zara Banner?!" wng habas na sabi ni Jess habang nandito kami sa coffee shop.


    Hindi na muna ako dumiretso sa bahay namin ni Callum at inaya ko si Jess dito. Umiinitng ang ulo ko kapag naala ang pakikitungo sa''kin ng guard doon sa kompanya. Napahiya ako.


    "Wow!" Jess gasped and looks surprised. "Grabe pasabog mo! Bakit ngayon mong sinabi?! At bakit hindi ka kla ng guard?!"


    "I don''t have i. d-"


    "Sana sinabi mong asawa ka ni Callum!"


    I shrugged. Ang kapal naman siguro ng mukha ko kung gagawin ko ''yon.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    "Hindi ka parin sanay? Mag asawa na kayo at tumitira na sa iisang bahay-"


    "We''re just married in papers" I cut her off.


    "Kahit na! Kunan mag-iiba rin ang mararamdan niyo. Trust me" she even smiled proudly.


    That will never be happen...


    "So... how does it feel to see Callum''s handsome face in the morning?"


    Umarko ang ky ko.


    "You know what? You''re nonsense-oh, wait!"


    I took my phone out and saw that Callum was calling. Pinakatitigan ko muna ''yon, hindi ko m kung sasagutin ko o hindi. I was about to declined it when Jess suddenly p my hand and she answered the call. Naki ang mata ko ng marinig ang mlim na buntong hininga sa kabng linya.


    "Jess! What the-"


    "Kausapin mo na!" pagalit niyang bulong at siya na mismo ang nag hawak ng cellphone ko.


    "Hello? Patricia? Where are you?" boses ni Callum.


    Natutop ko angbi at natahimik. Medyo maingay sa background niya.


    "Just at least informed me first? I don''t like the way you disrespect her. She''s my wife" I heard Callum''s irritated voice.


    T may kausap siya at mukhang galit.


    "It''s fine. Pinaalis ko na si Zara. Just tell Patricia to go here. I wanted to see her" narinig ko ang malumanay na boses ni Mrs. Vsquez.


    Gusto niya ako makita? Kinabahan ako. Pagkatapos ng kasal namin ni Callum ay hindi ko na ulit pa nakausap ang mommy niya, even his brothers. I''m still not close to them and I don''t think that needs to happen, Callum and I are just acting. "Patricia?" ulit ni Callum ng wng marinig m sa''kin. "You still there? Where are you?"


    "Here at the coffee shop with my friend" sabi ko bago tumingin kay Jess na nakangisi, t kinikilig.


    "Which coffee shop? I will fetch you-"


    "Uh-no!" agap ko. "I''m okay, you don''t need to-"


    "Mom wants to see you" he interrupted.


    "Ah, next time nang siguro. U-Uuwi na rin ako sa bahay kasi.." I trailed off and thinking some excuses. "M-Medyo sumama kasi yung pakiramdam ko"


    "Gaga, anong sinasabi mo!" hindi ko pinansin si Jess.


    "Why? Are you okay?" lumambot ang boses niya.


    "N-Not really. Bye.."


    I ended the call and snatched my phone from Jess.


    "His parents seems kind. Why don''t you interact with them?"


    "It''s hard for me to deal with them. I know they''re kind and sweet but I think, it needs to take time?" I said and stand up.

    Inaya ko na si Jess umuwi at inihatid niya ako sa bahay namin ni Callum. Hindi siya makapaniw ng makita ang tinitirahan namin.


    "Wow! Ang ganda naman ng bahay niyo! Angki!" sumunod siya sa''kin ng lumabas ako ng sasakyan.


    "Ak ko ba ihahatid mong ako?" sabi ko habang binubuksan ang gate.


    "May bk siguro si Callum na mag-anak ng isang dosena dahil hindi bagay na dwang kayo rito!"


    Napaigtad si Jess ng hhin ko na ang buhok niya. Kanina pa siya, ah!


    "Aray! Jokeng!" sheughed.


    ng minuto pa ay umalis na siya.


    Pumasok ako sa bahay at agad nagluto ng pagkain. Habang kumakain ay nanood ako ng movies, when I got bored, I decided to go upstairs and rest.


    Until I realized that I had fallen asleep.


    Hapon na ako nagising at kumakm na ang sikmura ko. Damn, it''s already 5 p. m and I''ve already missed eating lunch. I went down to the kitchen to eat again but I saw a stic bag on the table. I opened it and saw that it was food.


    I wondered and looked for any notes on who it was from but I found nothing except to my name written on the stic. It''s obviously mine? Pero kanino naman ito galing? Kay Callum?


    Well, kinain ko nang iyon at pagkatapos ay nagluto nang ako ng pagkain para sa dinner. Natutuwang ako dahil maraming pagkain dito at niluto ko nang ang gusto ko.


    It''s already 7:00 p. m and I''ve done too much. I have already cooked and watched movies. When I got bored watching, I went to the big swimming pool at the back of the house. I just sat on the edge of the pool with my feet submerged in the water. When I felt cold, I moved to a swing just near the pool.


    Umupo ako sa swing at dinama angmig ng hangin. Madilim na pero w parin si Callum. Ganito ba tga siya nauwi? Sobrangte na. Napapaisip parin ako kung tungkol saan ang pinag-usapan n ni Zara. I''m sure Zara already saw know about Callum being married.


    Maya-maya ay naririnig ko na ang nag-iingay na sasakyan sabas ng bahay. It''s probably Callum. Binuksan ko ang gate at agad pumasok ang sasakyan niya. Pagkasara ko ng gate ay saktong pagbas niya ng sasakyan. "Thanks.." he murmured. "Did you eat the food I sent earlier?"


    Oh, it''s really came from him. "Uhm, yeah.."


    Nauna akong nagkad papasok at dumiretso sa kusina para uminom ng tubig. Si Callum ay nagtungo naman sa kwarto niya. What I supposedly do next? Am I able to prepared food for him like what wife do to husband? We don''t have maids so no one else will do it but me.

    Ininit ko muna ang mga niluto ko kanina bago inihain samesa. Halos khating oras na siguro akong naghihintay sa ibaba ngunit w parin si Callum. Umakyat ako at tumayo sa mismong tapat ng pinto ng kwarto niya. Inpat ko ang tenga sa pintuan at naririnig ko ang mahihina niya''ng bulong at t may kinakausap.


    I just decided to go to my room while Callum was still busy and I didn''t expect to be able to fell asleep again...


    Ginising ako ng sinag m sa sikat ng araw na sumusungaw sa bintana ng kwarto ko. W akong choice kundi tumayo at hawiin ang kurtina ng bintana. Masyado ng sikat ang araw. Umupo ako sa kama at inla ang nangyari kagabi. I was waiting for Callum so we can eat dinner but he''s still busy until I got fall asleep.


    He didn''t even bother to wake me up?


    I checked my phone and saw Jess''s message reminding me about our first ss today. Shit, I almost forgot. Today is our first ss at med school.


    Mabilis akong naligo at nag-ayos ng sarili. Our all white uniform really looks good on me. I let my long hair down because it''s still wet when Ie out of the room. Naamoy ko ang bango ng pancakes sa kusina at nadatnan ko roon si Callum na nakaupo at nagkakape. He''s already on his work attire. May pagkain na rin samesa.


    Lumingon siya sa''kin.


    "You''re awake.." tipid niya''ng sabi bago ako pinasadahan ng tingin m ulo hanggang paa.


    I got conscious.


    "Your first day ss?" he asked when I sat down infront of him.


    I nodded.


    He got me a coffee so I immediately drink it and I paired with a two pieces pancake.


    Nang matapos akong kumain ay agad akong bumalik sa kwarto. Muli akong nag-ayos ng sarili. I put a light blush and lipstick on my face before finally going out with my bag.


    Nareceive ko ang text ni Jess na susunduin niya na raw ako. Sinabi ko na hintayin niya nang ako sa mismongbas ng vige.


    Nakasalubong ko si Callum sa ibaba. Tumingin siya sa''kin bago sa sasakyan niya.


    "S-Sabay kami ni Jess.." sabi ko.


    "Hmm, what time is your out?"


    "I haven''t seen my schedule.."


    "Okay. Just text me the time" sabi niya bago ako tuluyang tumalikod.


    Iniwan ko na siya at agad akong sumakay ng grab pbas ng vige at lumipat ako sa sasakyan ni Jess na naghihintay na sa''kin.
